Radar Chart - Custral Docs

A radar chart comparing two groups across five dimensions.

When to use

Radar charts plot many metrics around a polygon. Use them to compare two or three records (or two or three time periods) across the same set of metrics: sales rep skills, account health dimensions, customer profile attributes.

Required data shape

Axes: 3+ numeric properties to plot per axis.
Series: each series is one record (or one group); 1-3 series ideal.

Configuration

Setting	What it does
Axes	The numeric properties plotted on each spoke of the polygon.
Series	The property that identifies each series (often the record).
Normalize	Scales every axis to a common 0–1 range for fair comparison.

Limitations

Three or more series get tangled. Use small-multiples instead.
Axis order matters visually, adjacent metrics imply correlation that may not exist.
